1. Clone the remote repository as usual:
git clone git://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql.git
2. Create as many local clones as you want:
git clone postgresql foobar
3. In each clone (supposing you care about branch xyzzy):
3.1. git remote origin set-url ssh://whatever/postgresql.git
3.2. git remote update && git remote prune
3.2. git checkout -t origin/xyzzy
3.4. git branch -d master
3.5. Edit .git/config and set origin.fetch thus:
[remote "origin"]
fetch = +refs/heads/xyzzy:refs/remotes/origin/xyzzy
(You can git config remote.origin.fetch '+refs/...' if you're
squeamish about editing the config file.)
3.6. That's it. git pull and git push will work correctly.
(This will replace the "origin" remote that pointed at your local
postgresql.git clone with one that points to the real remote; but you
could also add a remote definition named something other than "origin",
in which case you'd need to "git push thatname" etc.)
